In the quiet of the night, you whispered sweet deceit,
Cloaked in shadows of our trust, a secret you did keep.
The bond we forged now shattered, scattered in the dust,
What once was gold and sacred, now lies broken, rust.

Eyes that once shone brightly, now hide a darker shade,
Truths you twisted cunningly, behind a smiling facade.
The echo of your laughter, now a haunting, bitter sound,
In the ruins of our friendship, no solace can be found.

Promises you gave so freely, now hang like poisoned fruit,
Every word a dagger’s edge, a silence absolute.
The warmth we shared now cold, a chill runs through my veins,
In the garden of our memories, only sorrow remains.

Betrayal’s shadow lingers, a ghost that will not fade,
In the silence of this hollow, the price of trust betrayed.
Yet in this pain, a lesson, a truth that must be known,
In the ashes of betrayal, a stronger self is grown.
